The development of an organism is accompanied by various cellular morphogenetic movements, changes in cellular as well as nuclear morphology and transcription programs. Recent evidence suggests that intra and inter-cellular connections mediated by various adhesion proteins contribute to defining nuclear morphology. In addition, three dimensional organization of the cell nucleus regulate the tra...

introduction: endothelial cells are subjected to mechanical forces caused by pulsatile flow and pressure leading to hemodynamic shear stress and circumferential stress on endothelial layer. the study aimed at a quantitative evaluation of endothelial cell morphology by application of cyclic loading. endothelial cells respond to applied loads with adaptation and remodeling. such mechanisms are ma...

in order to study the normal hematopoiesis, cellular components and myeloid/erythroid (m/e) ratio in the bone marrow of the pheasant (phasianus colchicus), bone marrow samples were collected from the proximal tibiotarsus bone of 16 clinically healthy adult pheasant. the bone marrow smears were stained using the giemsa stain. the results indicated that the development and formation of blood cell...

Filamentous cyanobacterium Fremyella diplosiphon is known to alter its pigmentation and morphology during complementary chromatic acclimation (CCA) to efficiently harvest available radiant energy for photosynthesis. F. diplosiphon cells are rectangular and filaments are longer under green light (GL), whereas smaller, spherical cells and short filaments are prevalent under red light (RL). Light ...

  Background & Objectives: Antisense peptide nucleic acids (PNA) that target growth essential genes show potent bactericidal properties without cell lysis. We considered the possibility that whether PNA treatment influence the bacteria total nucleic acids content and apply approach to develop a new delivery system to Dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are the most potent antigen presenting cells in th...
